Chich. Well, how say you. Take, eat, this is my body: is it not Christs body, as soon as the words be said?
Chich. Well, how say you. Take, eat, this is my body: is it not Christes body, as soone as the wordes be sayd?
Wood. My Lord, I will answer you by your own words,1 that you answered me, whi•h is true: the water, the word, and the child, all these together make baptism: the bread, wine, and the word make the Sacrament: & the eater, eating in true faith, maketh it his body. Here I prove it is not Christs body, but to the faithful receiver. For he said: Take, eat, this is my body. He called it not his body before eating, but after eating. And Saint Augustine saith: Creed, & manducasti: Believe, and thou hast eaten And Saint John saith: He that believeth in God, dwelleth in God, and God in him: wherefore it is unpossible to dwell in God, and to eat his body, without a true faith.
Wood. My Lorde, I will aunswere you by your owne wordes,1 that you aunswered me, whi•h is true: the water, the word, and the childe, all these together make baptisme: the bread, wine, and the word make the Sacrament: & the eater, eating in true fayth, maketh it his body. Here I proue it is not Christes body, but to the faythfull receiuer. For he sayd: Take, eat, this is my body. He called it not his body before eating, but after eating. And Saynt Augustine sayth: Crede, & manducasti: Beleue, and thou hast eaten And Saynt Iohn sayth: He that beleueth in God, dwelleth in God, and God in him: wherfore it is vnpossible to dwell in God, and to eat his body, without a true fayth.
